It’s episode 69 (am I right? )So we look at our favourite films of 2018 and show you outtakes which mostly consist of Chris swearing.

In between ‘franchise’ episodes (where we delve into a particular film or series of films) we’ll be doing bonus episodes where we talk about wider trends in sequel culture, sequel news, new trailers and whatever the hell we like

In this episode, Allen Chris countdown their top ten films of 2018. And in the spirit of DVD special features we let you hear our blooper reel/outtakes/deleted scenes from the past year (yes, there is stuff that doesn’t make the cut)

In This Episode: We round out 2018 looking at two family films that are genuinely fun, heartwarming and worth your time. Even Chris, the Grinch That Stole Podcasts, had his heart grow two sizes, at least while watching.

The two Paddington films won over critics and audiences, Paddington 2 even made Allen’s top ten of 2017. So grab a marmalade sandwich and lets talk bears.

In this episode Allen and Chris talk trailers and may have solved a true crime mystery!
Along the way there is the possiblity of a return of The Saint (Simon Templar) is coming! Guillermo Del Toro going back to the well, an exciting Candyman reboot, big trouble in the Big Trouble In Little China remake? and a defence of Fantasy Island.

All that and Chris has his lack of Lion King knowledge exposed while Allen is the subject of a brand new jingle and show segment.

Tim Burton’s Batman was a cultural juggernaut in 1989, riding a wave of hype and an iconic performance from Jack Nicholson to box office success. The unlikely casting of Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman worked and this ‘darker’ version of Batman can be seen as the forebearer of so many of the comic book adaptations that now rule the box office. With Batman Returns, Burton drove his vision for the dark knight further, tripling the villains to include Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman, Danny Devito’s penguin and the new villain, Christopher Walken’s Max Shreck

The opening of Friday the 13th Part VIII saw a Batman ’89 billboard in Times Square.

In episode 64 Allen & Chris, in their third and final (?) trip to Crystal Lake, take a look at Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood and Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, the final entries of the franchise made with Paramount Pictures. After the fun of Part VI: Jason Lives can these two movies deliver on their promises of Jason battling a psychic and cutting a swathe across New York City?

No, frankly it’s more like Jason BORE-hees, am I right?

In this episode:
– Jason gets used to the water
– Bad psychic battle tactics
– Confusing timelines
– Confusing travel times
– Negligent electrical companies
– And perhaps the biggest question of all, can Chris bear to watch any more of this film series?
